Charting Pediatrics


Feb 1, 2022

It is no secret that medical visits of any kind can sometimes be scary for children and their families. Certified Child Life Specialists are educated and clinically trained in the healthcare setting to help children and their families navigate and cope with the hardships of illness, hospitalization, diagnosis, and trauma. Their work improves patient and family care, satisfaction, and overall experience. In this episode, we are going to discuss how primary care providers can incorporate Child Life tools into daily practice in support of their patient families.

Today, I am happy to be speaking with my colleagues, Jennifer Staab & Stephanie Barta.

Both Jennifer and Stephanie work in our Child life department here at Children’s Hospital Colorado. Jennifer is the Manager of the department and Stephanie is a Child life Specialist.
